first you have to multiple 25%( or 0.25 ) to $65.42 and that will give you the tax #. Then you add $16.36 (tax #) to $65.42 then you get your total.

$65.42 x 0.25= $16.36
$16.36 + $65.42= $81.78

Answer:

The total cost is $81.78

Explanation:

First lets calculate the tip

tip = cost * percent of tip

tip = 65.42*.25

tip = 16.355

Which rounds to 16.36 since we are working with money and round to the nearest cent

total cost = cost of cut and blowout + tip

= 65.42 +16.36

=81.78
